Right on Target

For ordinary people, divination requires specific extraordinary tools, which are relatively rare and most of them have a limited lifespan.

Chapter 93 is too accurate.

For example, what Vier learned after Dream Entry... the compass that Shanhe carried might become ineffective after undergoing a round of divination.

Many divination tools can only be used once or twice.

Therefore, those who are capable of divination and are willing to use their power for their subordinates are generally quite wealthy.

For example, the leader of the Insect Blood Society, Luo Chen, is a very wealthy man. He probably spent a lot of money on it, which explains why he sought out Ye Qian time and time again.

In contrast, other forces rely not on money, but on powerful Transcendent with divination abilities.

No matter how you look at it, neither of these situations makes them easy targets.

"It should be a liaison meeting for unfamiliar people."

This time, Vier came to a building with a very classical style.

She discovered that Hidden One seemed to really like this style, and various gatherings took place in such settings.

Large glasses of beer were placed on the table, and someone was raising their glass to drink.

Walking through the dark underground hall, the white-haired girl came to a wall and looked up at a bunch of notices posted on it.

But her Mystic Thread were watching the situation on the scene.

A few minutes later, when someone noticed her, Vier turned and went to the front desk.

"I can take on some jobs. This is my contact information."

She pushed a piece of paper away.

The man at the front desk took the slip of paper, glanced at it, and asked, "Detective work, assassination, and providing divination at a fortune-telling shop?"

"Yes, if you have an employer, you can contact me." Vier seemed very confident.

"Okay, I can contact the employer for you," the man said casually.

"Thanks."

Vier nodded slightly, turned and walked out the door.

"Silver-white hair, a rare beauty, what do you think?" A man walked up with a wine glass.

The man at the front desk neither confirmed nor denied it.

The other person picked up the piece of paper that Vier had handed him earlier, as if they were old acquaintances.

"Proficient in detective work, assassination, and divination, that's interesting. When I applied for the job before, I didn't dare to say I was proficient in any of them. She's also good at all three: detective work and divination, especially divination. Such talent is rare."

"Many people know common divination methods." The man at the front desk glanced over and snatched the paper back.

"But useful divination is very rare."

That evening, a message was sent to Vier's phone.

"Someone is seeking a divination. If you agree, please meet at the divination shop at 9 a. m. tomorrow."

"OK," she replied.

They've taken the bait.

She didn't come to this contact point for no reason.

The main source of the information came from the gray-robed man's memories, which revealed that the Planetary Society was a rival Personality Cult.

The most crucial point is that the Personality Cult will soon launch an attack on this planet.

The other side seems unaware of this.

"These contact points are ostensibly a means for Hidden One and Transcendent to communicate and conduct business, but the planet treats them as a priority. Therefore, every outsider who comes to make contact may be used as a key target for them to test and exploit."

Vier kept monitoring the scene with the Mystic Thread, even after she went home.

Unexpectedly, the person who contacted me this time happened to be from Planet.

Of course... there are also spies from the Personality Cult in that contact point, but they can't stay there all the time, as that would arouse unnecessary suspicion.

"It's late today. Let's go to the fortune-telling shop to register our identities and then rest. Tonight, we'll take the third group of people on a mission to another world."

This kind of thing is done by the body in the Kalu World.

Ye Qian's cannon fodder body has re-entered the Dream World, preparing to search for a new world of Colored Bubble.

The next morning.

"I'm going to school." Ye Qian No. 2 took a taxi to the familiar campus.

After leveling up in the Main World for so long, this body is now at LV20.

She started thinking about a promotion.

There's no need for Weaver this time; perhaps a different approach would be better.

However, you shouldn't choose attributes that are too low, as that will affect the success rate.

"I need to think about it more."

Meanwhile, around 9 o'clock, Vier waited and then went to the fortune-telling shop.

"Hello, is this Miss Vier? Your room is number 42. Since you're a newcomer, the price is 50 yuan. Of course, you can raise the price yourself, although we don't recommend it."

"It's okay, 50 it is."

The minimum price is 50 yuan, of which the fortune-telling society takes a 10% cut, so you actually receive 45 yuan.

Within the fortune-telling agency, fortune tellers are ranked according to their abilities. Only when you reach a higher rank will your price increases be accepted by clients; otherwise, you'll be waiting to have no clients.

Of course, most of these fortune tellers are just ordinary people without any supernatural abilities, so their accuracy is naturally abysmal. To succeed, one either needs excellent oratory skills (the ability to persuade) or good luck.

"Room 42, this should be it."

Upon opening the door and stepping inside, one is immediately struck by the dimly lit and somewhat mysterious scene.

Inside the narrow, rectangular room, a table separates the two sides.

The divination tools are provided on-site, but they bear the logo of the divination society, which is generally considered to indicate that people who use such commercial tools are not very skilled, so everyone brings their own tools.

Vier sat down and took out her divination tools from her small bag.

Crystal Pendulum!

Compass!

Tarot cards!

Playing cards!

That's right, everything can be divined. Even if you're using dice, it's allowed as long as you can convince the customer (although it's a bit difficult).

At this very moment, in the lobby of the fortune-telling society.

"Hello, sir, would you like to have your fortune told?"

"Yes, what's the price of room 42?"

"Number 42?" The woman in front of her paused for a moment, then said, "That's a newbie who doesn't often do fortune telling; the price is only 50."

Actually, they just registered, but to avoid not getting any clients, the service providers will basically say that this fortune teller rarely comes for readings.

After all, registering as a fortune teller costs tens of thousands of yuan, and you can't expect people to just sit around doing nothing all day.

"50 yuan?" The customer wasn't too surprised and silently paid the money. "That's it."

"Okay, sir, please."

The tall, strong man arrived at the reserved room and entered through the opposite door from where Vier had gone.

The moment you step inside, the gloomy atmosphere is immediately apparent.

This is the atmosphere of the fortune-telling club; everyone knows it.

The door closed, and the man took a few steps to the front of the spot.

A young girl sat quietly behind the table.

Her appearance was somewhat unexpected.

With her long, pure silver-white hair flowing down her back, the curtains behind her let in a faint light, illuminating her silhouette. Her snow-white face in the shadows possessed an indescribable sense of holiness.

The man remained stunned for a long time before he came to his senses.

For a moment, he even wondered if he had met Saintess from the Light Prayer Church.

No, even a true Saintess would find it hard to perceive her as so pure and holy.

The man took a deep breath and sat down in the chair.

"Sir, what would you like to have divined?" Vier asked.

The girl's voice perfectly matched her appearance; it sounded very charming.

He knew that this girl was the one who attended the liaison meeting yesterday. As a member sent by Planet, he needed to test her in this way. If she was indeed capable, then it was naturally worth getting in touch with her.

During this period, he had actually conducted many similar tests, but most of them were disappointing in their abilities, and they could not possibly know that the clients who came specifically to find him were testing him with ulterior motives.

"Give me a fortune reading about my career," the man said with great interest.

"Specifically, do you want to see the past, the present, or the future?"

"You can still see it from the past? Is there any explanation for that?"

He became slightly interested in this unusual method of divination, as it was the first time he had encountered it.

Most fortune tellers predict the future. They will try to ask about the client's situation and then perform a divination based on the specific circumstances to see various aspects of the future.

Of course, for those Hidden One, this process may involve a bit of mental power. Although it cannot be directly predicted, it can indeed provide some hints.

From a certain perspective, divination is a Taboo field. Even those with Transcendent who try to glimpse the future may suffer a backlash and be completely Pollution. Just like the coin toss method commonly used by fortune tellers, it carries inherent risks and a chance of error, but those who can actually do it are truly exceptional.

After the man asked the question, the girl began to explain calmly:

"In the past, it's about looking back at who you were and seeing if there were any unresolved issues with your destiny. In the present, it's about finding solutions to the difficulties you're currently facing through divination. As for the future... it's about divining your destiny for the next few decades."

Hearing the girl's words, the man couldn't help but think.

This girl explained the divination in such detail; did she develop the method herself?

"Can we try them all?"

"Sure, but it will cost extra."

"How many?"

"10 yuan."

"Add it."

It was surprisingly cheap.

"First and foremost, it's the past."

Vier took the compass from the lower drawer and placed it on the table, then picked up her Pendulum.

"Sir, let me see what your potential regrets may be."

The Mystic Thread had been eavesdropping on the other's thoughts for a long time, and now, due to the divination, the creature was subconsciously recalling its events. Meanwhile, Vier seemed to possess mind-reading abilities, quickly knowing what to say.

The girl stretched out her arm, the Pendulum below her palm, and then, to the man's astonishment, the compass began to spin.

Vier's pure voice echoed in the empty room as if she were reciting poetry.

"As fate begins to intertwine, looking back, you have far too many regrets."

"Let me see..."

"Well, sir, you have lost the most important person in your life. She raised you and did not want you to go down a very dangerous path. But you insisted on going, and ultimately indirectly caused her death."
